Okay, because of scheduling issues, I have to add another question WAY ahead of 24 hours. Answer any correctly to get the thread.

Q0:
CliffD wrote:This question comes from the motion picture Houhokekyo Tonari no Yamada-kun (aka My Neighbors the Yamadas).

At one point in the film we see Nonoko's classroom, where the students are showing their personal mottos to the class. When they ask their teacher, Fujiwara-sensei, what HER motto is (and No, it's NOT "Get Married" or "Change Jobs"), she puts it down on paper and shows it to the class.

THE QUESTION: What is Fujiwara-sensei's motto?

NOTE: I'm looking for the motto from the original Japanese version, not the English dub, which is decidedly different.
Q1:
CliffD wrote:This question comes from Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex. BE CAREFUL OF SPOILERS!!

In one episode, one of Section 9's Tachikomas decides to go out on his own. During it's excursion into the Great Outdoors, he encounters a little girl who is searching for her lost dog.

THE QUESTION: What is the dog's name?
Q2:
CliffD wrote:This question comes from Mobile Suit GUNDAM SEED (now that all of the DVDs for the series are out, I'm going through this again) -- and will be in SPOILER-GARD (or Inviso-Text, or whatever you want to call it); please be kind and, if you answer this Q, also protect against spoilage.
SPOILER-GARD wrote: Early on in the series, it is revealed that the term GUNDAM is an acronym (it was the boot-up screen for the OS when Kira first pilots the Strike). Later on in the series, it is revealed that SEED is also an acronym.

THE QUESTION: What does SEED stand for?
Q3:

THE QUESTION: What is the name of the movie company that first hires Saki?
Q4:
CliffD wrote:This question comes from Omohide Poroporo (aka Only Yesterday).

One of the problems young Taeko faces involves the school lunch; the policy at the time allowing you to discard only ONE item from the meal -- you had to consume the rest. Taeko is even scolded for hiding her unwanted daikon radish and onion mix in her bread.

Other students have issue w/ the same policy. For example, at one lunch, the boy sitting next to Taeko has TWO items he doesn't want to consume. As he and Taeko discuss the situation, they strike up an agreement -- Taeko will take one of the items off of his hands, and later, when daikon radish and onions are served again, the boy has to take Taeko's portion in return. So with a careful glance to make certain no one's watching (and Brahm's Hungarian Rhapsody No. 5 to set the PERFECT mood! :wink: ), plates are switched, and Taeko consumes a second portion of an item from the school lunch.

THE QUESTION: What did Taeko have seconds of?
Q5:
This question comes from the Quack Experimental Anime Excel Saga!! (sort of . . .)

Actually, it has to do with ADV's American DVDs.

As is the custom with every video (tape, disc, whatever media), there is a warning to the consumer of the various federal (and sometimes international) laws and codes against illegal copying and/or public viewing (DO NOT go into this HERE). But in keeping with the tone of the series, the usual "FBI WARNING" at the opening of ADV's DVDs was . . . tweaked. (FYI, on the original Japanese DVD release, their version of this warning was also . . . tweaked.)

Specifically, the particular codes cited can be found in this paragraph:
The contents of this Excel Saga videogram are licensed for private home viewing purposes only and are protected under the terms of both U.S. Code (Title 17, Sections 501 and 506) and __________________________.
THE QUESTION: What went into the blank?

I hope you don't need the exact wording, but it was something along the lines of the "Ilpalazzo 1987 No-Touchy Agreement" or some such thing. I probably screwed it up, but it's definitely something like that.

Remember, Ilpalazzo's watching you!

"the 1998 ACROSS treaty (AKA the Don't Toucha My Toot-Toot Pact)."

Continueing: "Under the express orders of Ilpalazzo, supreme leader of ACROSS, any unauthorized duplication, public screening or use of the packaging as a coaster, musical instrument or contraceptive device is strictly prohibited, and will be dealt with in the most severe manner passible, most probably involving chicken feathers, cod liver oil and a very, vary depraved walrus."

Didn't it go something like this:

Bo-Bobo swallows Don-Pachi (Poppa Rocks in the english Manga translation), then they go through a fusion like in DBZ, ending up with a very Dragonball Z-esque freak named Bo-Pachi or Bobo-rocks or something like that.

Either that, or Pachi does some kind of transformation, and only Bo-Bobo actually attacks (I read the first chapter in Shounen Jump, only, so I'm going with that).
